Don't fall into the morning-robe trap
by Vigdis Lamberg
Have you lost your job and received a severance package? Are you thinking about taking it easy and enjoying some time off before starting the job search process? Don’t fall into the morning-robe trap! It can be very tempting to sleep in, enjoy a late breakfast, and read the newspapers when you know you have several extra months of salary secured.
I know all about this, because I fell straight into that trap myself when the headquarters of the company I led was moving to Stockholm and I received a generous severance package that guaranteed my salary beyond the normal notice period. I felt I had plenty of time and financial security. It turned out to be completely wrong. The job search process requires both time and resources. And the unemployment benefits from NAV that you may receive once your severance package runs out are lower than you might think (62% of your previous salary up to 6G. Above 6G = 0!).
Start your search for a new job immediately, while you still have momentum. Because if you fall into the morning-robe trap, your pace and energy can quickly slow down. Even if you have previously been a manager and hired people yourself, you will soon discover that sitting on the other side of the table is completely different. Perhaps it has been a long time since you last applied for a job, because opportunities have come to you until now? If so, you may have a lot to learn about job searching in 2024.
Securing the job you truly want takes longer than you think. There are many factors to deal with on the road to the job you really want:
- In a market where very few jobs are publicly advertised, you must learn new methods for finding positions that have not been announced.
- In competition with hundreds of other talented people, you need to shine. You must showcase every facet of the diamond that you are. Mapping out all of your experience and skills — both formal and informal — is important groundwork for identifying your differentiators.
- You must write applications that sell you from the very first paragraph.
- Your CV represents your life. A one-page CV does not do you full justice. The battle is won or lost on the front page. If you capture the reader’s attention there, they will have plenty of time to read the rest.
- The interview should help YOU get the job. They invited you because you captured their interest. Plan and carry out the interview in a way that makes them want to hire YOU.
- Salary levels are flexible. Learn techniques that help you secure the highest possible salary — right before the elastic snaps.
